This book is one of the few high-quality gangster novels I have read. Whether it is brotherhood or love and hatred, it is vividly portrayed. Shark Boy's sacrifice of his life to protect his master made me cry. As the author said, this is the worst era and the best era.
Yes, yes, this is my first time reading a Hong Kong gangster novel, and the writing has that flavor. Very good, feels like an uncle.
It's okay. When reading a mindless and enjoyable article, if you feel that this one is suffocating, just jump to the next one and feel happy. This is how I read it. Maybe it is to pursue a sense of reality, or it is a first-person perspective diary, which is more vernacular and unpolished. It's like the weather is very nice today and it's a sunny day. The protagonist is a bit foolhardy, so it's suitable for him to have a boss over his head to fight wherever he wants, but he has to be careful, otherwise bad things will happen. But he is indeed young and vigorous, not passionate, not young
It's wonderful. The writing is not sluggish at all. There are just some typos, but it doesn't affect me. I hope I can write a million words eloquently. I support it.
It is real and beautiful, bloody and thrilling. Chen Huimin is also in the book, but it is a small role. This Zhong Kui is the author and the protagonist of this book. He is the boss of the 14K Loyalty Word Pile and the Word Pile. It should be his personal experience. However, the book is updated too little, only two episodes a day. Mr. Tomato is too stingy. Seven or eight episodes a day should be about the same.
It's super beautiful. The composition of the novel is very clear and the chapters are well connected.
The story is very compact, without hydrology, and the events are described in great detail. It is a rare good book.
I don't know much about Hong Kong's underworld, but the author's writing is good. It looks very much like that period of real history. The only shortcoming is the lack of polishing of details.
It looks great, the characters are well described
It's really beautiful. It feels like a first-person perspective. I just hope that the author doesn't have to stop updating. He updates four times a day. Hahaha.
